Coveram 5mg/5mg tablets contain two active ingredients, perindopril and amlodipine, to effectively treat high blood pressure. Each tablet is yellow, oval, and biconvex with “5/5” imprinted on one side. Perindopril is an ACE inhibitor that relaxes blood vessels, while amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that widens blood vessels to improve blood flow and lower blood pressure.

Why You'll Love It
Coveram 5mg/5mg is used to treat high blood pressure in adults who do not have good control with perindopril or amlodipine alone. It is helpful for patients who need both medications for better blood pressure control. The usual starting dose is one tablet daily. The dose can be changed by a doctor depending on how well the patient responds to the medicine. It is best to take the tablet at the same time every day, with or without food.

What's In It
Warning
Coveram 5mg/5mg is not safe to use during pregnancy as it may harm the fetus. If pregnancy is detected, stop taking the medication immediately. Be cautious when using it in patients with severe kidney problems. Adjustments in dosage may be needed depending on kidney function. Watch out for low blood pressure, especially at the beginning of treatment or when the dose is increased. Regularly monitor blood pressure. ACE inhibitors like perindopril, found Coveram 5mg/5mg, can lead to angioedema (swelling of the face, lips, throat, or tongue). Patients with a history of angioedema should be careful when using this medication. Amlodipine should be used with care in patients with liver issues because it is metabolized in the liver. Always seek advice from a healthcare provider before starting or changing the dosage of Coveram 5mg/5mg to get personalized recommendations based on individual health conditions and other medications taken.
